Naomi goes Brazilian

Naomi Campbell is reportedly romancing a Brazilian actor ten years her junior.

The sexy supermodel started dating the Latin heartthrob Sergio Marone after they hooked up at the Rio carnival last month.

A source revealed to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Sergio's a real catch. In Brazil he's a real sex symbol and has loads of girls after him. It's early days but they've been getting on brilliantly."

The 34-year-old beauty, who was recently linked to American R'n'B star Usher, is said to be smitten with her latest lover after the pair enjoyed a series of dates together.

Insiders say Naomi, who last week admitted she fears she will never settle down, is hoping that sexy Sergio is ?the one' but worries that Spanish speaking Sergio's lack of English could put the breaks on the burgeoning romance.

The source added: "They've been on a few dates together and Naomi seems really keen.

"He's a real laid-back guy and has a very different temperament to Naomi. Obviously opposites attract."

Dark-haired Naomi has previously dated movie legend Robert De Niro, U2 bassist Adam Clayton and was widely expected to wed Formula One boss Flavio Briatore after a three year on-off romance.
